When Natural Resources Canada researchers held a meeting last January, they came to an important realization about their department’s relationship with First Nations.
Forest scientists often monitor experimental sites, and many at the Laurentian Forestry Centre have set them up on traditional Indigenous territory. The researchers wanted to know what level of knowledge the forest scientists had of First Nations in Quebec.
They brought the scientists into a room in Quebec City, and asked them to point out on a map the locations of their work. Then they compared the results with a map of traditional lands and asked the scientists if they had known about the overlap.
“The result was that they didn’t know that there were Indigenous people near their experimental sites,” said Patrice Bellefleur, a knowledge exchange and program support officer at the Laurentian Forestry Centre, part of Natural Resources Canada.
